WIll Chiranjeevi story set for Ram Charan

The buzz surrounding a potential collaboration between Nag Ashwin and Chiranjeevi has been simmering for years. Following the success of "Mahanati," the director revealed he had a captivating socio-fantasy script in mind, reminiscent of the classic "Paathala Bhairavi," specifically tailored for the Megastar.

While initial speculation hinted at a possible connection between this project and "Kalki 2898 AD," Nag Ashwin clarified that Chiranjeevi was never approached for the sci-fi epic. The script intended for Chiranjeevi remained in the pipeline, with Vyjayanthi Movies reportedly considering reviving it.

However, the project's trajectory seems to have shifted. Following the completion of "Kalki," Nag Ashwin is now rumored to be reviving the script, but with a twist: Ram Charan, not Chiranjeevi, is being considered for the lead role.

The reasoning behind this shift appears twofold. Chiranjeevi is currently committed to "Vishwambhara," and might not be inclined to dive into a fantasy genre project anytime soon. On the other hand, Ram Charan has never explored this genre before, making him a fresh and potentially exciting choice for Nag Ashwin's vision.

If this collaboration materializes, it would be a noteworthy pairing, drawing immense attention. Ram Charan's charisma and screen presence, combined with Nag Ashwin's imaginative storytelling, could create a compelling and unique cinematic experience.

The prospect of this project re-emerging, albeit with a new lead, has reignited excitement among fans. While the original plan for Chiranjeevi might have been shelved for now, the possibility of this collaboration with Ram Charan remains a tantalizing prospect, adding another layer to the evolving landscape of Tollywood.
